  • Overview
  • The Solder Wire (35gm) is a high-quality soldering wire designed for use in various electronic and IoT applications. This wire is ideal for soldering small components, repairing circuit boards, and creating prototypes.
  • Pin Description
  • The Solder Wire (35gm) does not have pins in the classical sense. Instead, it consists of a length of insulated wire with a flux core and a tin-lead alloy solder coating. The wire is designed to be melted and shaped to form a strong bond between electronic components.
  • Connection Structure
  • To use the Solder Wire (35gm), follow these steps:
  • 1. Prepare the components: Ensure the components you want to solder are clean and free of oxidation or debris.
  • 2. Apply flux: Apply a small amount of flux to the area where you want to solder. This helps the solder flow smoothly and remove oxidation.
  • 3. Heat the component: Use a soldering iron to heat the component you want to solder. The ideal temperature depends on the component and the solder wire, but typically ranges from 350F to 450F (175C to 230C).
  • 4. Apply the solder wire: Hold the solder wire close to the heated component, and allow the solder to flow onto the component. Move the wire back and forth to ensure an even flow of solder.
  • 5. Shape the solder: Use the soldering iron to shape the solder into the desired form. This can be a blob, a line, or a specific shape depending on the application.
  • 6. Allow the solder to cool: Let the solder cool and solidify before handling the component. This can take a few seconds, depending on the solder type and component size.
  • Tips and Precautions
  • Use a soldering iron with a temperature control to ensure the optimal temperature for the solder wire and component.
  • Keep the soldering area well-ventilated, as the flux can release harmful fumes when heated.
  • Avoid touching the soldering iron or hot components to prevent burns.
  • Use a solder sucker or desoldering wick to remove excess solder and prevent shorts.
  • Store the solder wire in a cool, dry place to prevent damage and degradation.
  • Technical Specifications
  • Wire diameter: 0.8 mm (0.0315 inches)
  • Flux core: Rosin-based flux
